Four Split Personalities

Chapter 2158: Chapter 1014: Blood, Flesh, and Bone

After a while

"The blood of your enemies..."

Tom raised his head and fixed his blood-red eyes on Ramollok, his voice hoarse as he said, "I need the blood of my enemies, Ramollok. The amount doesn’t have to be much, but the choices are limited."

Ramollok immediately understood, smiled wryly, and said, "You mean, you want me to take a little blood from that Hei Fan, who’s constantly under the protection of the Holy Church Union? Honestly, isn’t this joke a bit too much?"

"You know very well I’m not joking."

Tom subconsciously flicked his snake tongue, making a ’sizzling’ sound, as he coldly said, "Of course, that person isn’t my only choice. If the information you shared with me before was correct, the Half-dragon holy knight from the Light Teachings faction should also be in this city. She barely counts as one of my ’enemies’."

Ramollok nodded, speaking lightly, "Indeed, as far as I know, that knight lady named Yizou Jielai is indeed in this Holy Church Union delegation, and from what you previously mentioned, she truly fits the role of your ’enemy’."

"The number of my enemies is very few, very few."

Tom coiled himself back up, a bit restless as he said, "Because most of them are already dead, some died three years ago, some five, some ten... And that Half-Dragon, I can’t think of a reason for her to survive, but you actually tell me she’s not only alive but even participating in this meeting."

Ramollok slightly raised his eyebrow: "You suspect I’m lying to you?"

"I don’t want to suspect you, even though you are indeed the most malevolent person I’ve ever met."

Tom said harshly, and then seriously added: "The most important thing is, that woman, who was only Advanced Stage and hadn’t even reached the Epic Threshold, took a direct hit from my ’Blast’ and a ’Divine Edge’. Even if a Holy Knight’s physical fitness allowed her to withstand the first blow and survive, I clearly saw her body severed by two-thirds with the Divine Edge, yet you tell me she’s not only alive but even joined that Holy Church Union delegation."

"Hmm, so that’s what you think..."

Ramollok murmured softly, then fell silent for about three minutes, until Tom impatiently hissed before looking up and slowly saying, "It seems we must face an unfortunate fact, that with the loss of most of your spirit, not only have you lost your body, your strength has greatly diminished, but you have also paid some extra price."

Tom froze for a moment, and after a while, roared, "What are you implying?"

"Memory loss."

Ramollok raised an index finger and waved it, pointing at Tom’s snake head and saying softly, "Recall what you told me before. You clearly conveyed that the moment you cast the death curse on that Black Vatican Priest, not only was he not killed by your unbeatable black magic, but he also summoned a black mist that enveloped the female knight who supposedly had most of her body cut off, and she let out a painful moan in the mist."

Tom’s body suddenly stiffened, his scarlet eyes filled with disbelief.

"Dead people don’t make noise, so if there were no accidents, you who heard that painful moan should have known clearly that the female knight didn’t die. Yet just now, you seemed utterly baffled and confused by this fact."

Ramollok squinted his long, narrow eyes and said quietly, "It seems the price you’ve paid is far more than you imagined, little Tom."

Searching through his memories again, Tom found that he indeed seemed to have said those words before. He twisted his body somewhat anxiously and murmured, "Impossible... This isn’t normal. If I really forgot, how did I just mention it to you..."

"It was a whisper, I used a whisper on you."

Ramollok calmly interrupted Tom, speaking softly, "But please don’t misunderstand. The reason I secretly influenced you is not out of malice or distrust, but simply to obtain more accurate and reliable information. In fact, we’ve indeed received unexpected gains, haven’t we?"

Tom glared at Ramollok resentfully, and after a long time, gritted his teeth and said, "You should at least have informed me beforehand or explained immediately afterward."

"I’ll be more mindful next time."

Ramollok smiled lightly, languidly saying, "So, as for the soul issue, let’s put it aside for now. You can ponder it later. The primary issue now is how to rid yourself of this feeble state. We talked about... hmm, the blood of enemies, I’ll deal with that for you. Anything else?"

Tom barely pushed aside the fear quietly spreading deep inside him, straightened his thoughts, and continued in a low voice, "Besides the blood of enemies, I also need the flesh of a servant, which isn’t something you need to worry about. Lanny is quite willing to sacrifice a part of his body for my resurrection. The troublesome part is... the bone of a family member..."

"The blood of enemies, flesh of the servant, and bone of a family member? Haha, it does sound very much like black magic."

Ramollok smiled with interest and casually said, "What’s so troublesome? Aren’t your parents still alive, and there is also Delfi Lesterange, who holds the same rank as your father as a High Priest. If I recall correctly, she’s your aunt, right?"
